Ocean freight

Ocean freight coordination from origin through inland delivery.

Superior connects the origin, ocean service, documentation, customs-related activity, destination and inland transportation included in the customer’s shipment program.

International coordination

Manage the movement around the container—not only the vessel schedule.

Ocean transportation often begins with suppliers, purchase orders, consolidation timing and inland pickup before the freight reaches the port. It continues through arrival, customs-related activity, availability, final delivery and document closeout.

Superior defines the responsible parties and information flow around the agreed shipment scope.
